THE VALMONT BIKEPARK PROJECT
A World-Class Cycling Facility
Planned by the Community
Built by the Best in the World
Buy a Brick by August 21 and Make That Money Multiply
The meetings are done. The approval from City Council was unanimous. It's
time to create a place like no other. And we will all help make it happen.
Actually, work has already begun. A design team of Parks and Rec Staff,
BMA reps, and local landscape architects to select a Dream Team of trail
building specialists to build the bike specific features of the park.
What are we talking about?
* A UCI World Championship Cyclocross Race Course
* A BMX Jump Course
* A Pump Track
* Mountain Bike Skills Course
* Four Cross Track
* Singletrack Trails
* Progressive Challenge - For the Entire Family!
We need the cycling community to step up and show their support via a
"Buy a Brick" campaign that will help build the special features of this
park.
Buy a Brick and Help Build It!
Today we kick off a fundraising campaign that will help us generate even
more money through a grant from Great Outdoors Colorado. Grant applications
that have strong community support score higher in the selection process.
We are applying for a $200,000 grant! Your donation helps us win that
grant!
The City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Foundation and BMA (Boulder
Mountainbike Alliance) are partnering to build the Valmont Bike Park. We
like to call it 40 acres of bliss. We have big plans for the park- a place
to ride, teach, learn, race and advocate. You will be impressed with the
vision.
Your donation is tax deductible (501c3#84-0725860) and will be allocated
to the Valmont Bike Park, not the general parks fund, nor BMA. Be part of
it, or at least come out and ride when it is done. The Park will be free and
open to users of all ages and abilities. You will be greeted with the most
progressive bike park ever built and of course, lots of ear to ear grins...
